Default Invicta II 0144 Diver
You've seen it advertised, you've seen it on TV, now see real-life photos of the watch that launched 1660 copies. The INVICTA II DIVER!









I'm getting one. Are you?

You'll be lucky.

MSRP on these Invicta-designed babies is $495.

Is that just under £400? You can never be sure with homages!

The guy on eBay I nicked the pics from has them on at £58, but the shipping is another £20 or so.

I know the feeling.

Quick release spring bars tho - so it's not *all* bad.

I still find it difficult to believe how quickly someone copied the Supermarine. Do other models get copied this quickly? Rotary Aquaspeed / TAG Heuer springs to mind, although it's not as *blatant* as the Invicta. They are pretty unrepentant too by all accounts. Hey ho.
